wow, that is a hard question, simply because there are so many places you could eat and be very satisfied! i would suggest a little diversion on the way home and try out a place called Red Bar. I think it is one of the nicest, most eclectic places on the Emerald Coast. Don't let the name fool you though, they have a really laid back cool little bar, but this place packs them in nightly for food and fun. The menu is small, changing everyday, but the food is primo.

Looking for something a little more mainstream...you oculd try just about any place in Seaside. Seaside is a small little toen halfway back to Destin. It is very charming, a lot of the movie The Truman Show was filmed there. There are several really nice places right in the heart of Seaside. Instead of taking 98 back to Destin, you would hang a left on 30-A and travel along the coast. Anyone at Gulf World or your hotel will be able to give you great directions.

The list could go on and on...if you want something in PCB near Gulf World, you could try Shuck-Ums. Its a great little Oyster Bar and Grill. Excellent food and beverage, and great oysters if you are looking for them as well.

Hope it helps,
Have fun and look us up when you are in PCB.
